+ <body>
+
+ <p>We have updated clang, llvm, lldb, compiler-rt and libc++
+ in base to 3.7.0 release.
+ These all contain numerous improvements; please see the linked
+ release notes for more detailed information.
+ This brings us completely up-to-date with the latest upstream
+ versions of these projects. Meanwhile, &a.emaste; is working
+ on importing the llvm.org version of libunwind.</p>
+
+ <p>Like the 3.5.x and 3.6.x releases, these components require
+ C++11 support to build. At this point, FreeBSD 10.0 and later
+ provide that support, at least on x86.
+ Currently, there are no solid plans to MFC these versions to
+ any stable branches, due to the difficulties this would
+ introduce for the usual upgrade scenarios.</p>
+
+ <p>Thanks to &a.emaste; and &a.andrew; for their help with this
+ import, and thanks to &a.antoine; for several ports exp-runs.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>During the first ports exp-run, some major problems were
+ found, one introduced by a clang bug which caused pow() to
+ generate floating point exceptions in some cases, which in
+ turn caused libpng to fail to build, and one bug in
+ libjpeg-turbo, which was caused by undefined behavior.
+ These two problems took some time to fix, after which another
+ exp-run was done, and this resulted in about a dozen newly
+ failed ports. For almost all of these new failures, fixes
+ were submitted, and linked to the original PR 201377 for
+ the exp-run.</p>
